Recommended Model Stack

The dropdown options in the RPG Generator demo are designed to work optimally with this specific model stack. The trigger words in the UI correspond to the LoRA keywords.

This stack is built around the RPG Character Maker LoRA — designed to create portraits of characters in various fantasy contexts. All dropdown menu options narrow the generation to specific LoRA keywords.

💡
Tip: You can use any models you like, but the dropdown presets in the RPG Generator are tuned for this stack. Visit the LoRA's CivitAI page for keyword details.
